Afterlife

They say I don't think enough about the afterlife

Of what's below and above it's all in black and white

They say there's only one kind of love you have to choose just right

They say there's ony one kind of love in the afterlife

Kiss it all goodbye in the afterlife

You don't get another try

But I can't see, I don't know how

That I won't be what I am now, no

Even in my afterlife

And I won't have some other heart

That could find peace though we're apart, no

Even in my afterlife

It's not enough anymore to be good in this life

They say you've got to be sure so you can sleep at night

The only love that endures gives up without a fight

The only love that endures in the afterlife

Kiss it all goodbye in the afterlife

It was just a clever lie

If I could never see your face

Then I would have to fall from grace, I know

Even in my afterlife

Or for eternity be blind

To your presence in my mind, no

Even in my afterlife

And they could promise me a seat at the right side of the throne

But all would still be incomplete within the holy host, alone

Without the guiding light so sweet that has forever led me on

For me there's no eternal rest you and I have unfinished business yes, yes

Even in my afterlife

If I could still hold one thought clear

Then you will instantly appear, I know

Even in my afterlife

But I can't see, I don't know how that I won't be what I am now, no

Even in my afterlife

And I won't have some other heart

That could find peace though we're apart, no

Even in my afterlife

For I could not repose in bliss

Nevermore to know your kiss

No, no
